"Been to Knysna now on many times, stayed in various types of accommodation within the town, very impressed with this hotel, ideal for walking around town, the marina and it's location is great, ideal for walking to many of the towns restaurants' and bars. Would certainly recommend this hotel. Staff were really helpful, breakfast was fine although there are many cafe's around the hotel should one want any alternative breakfast, although what we had was fine."

Top Knysna Lagoon Hotel Reviews

Villa Castollini

10/10 Excellent

"A really beautiful property up on the heights with stunning views across the lagoon towards Knysna and a nice balcony to sit out in the evening and lovely gardens and pool ( book the deluxe room it’s worth it !) Huge comfy bed and big bath tub, loved the fluffy robes . Breakfast was delicious with a great choice of fruits, yoghurt, cereals, cheese and ham , breads and a cooked breakfast made to order . Well stocked bar with lovely wine choice and a nice guest sitting room . Two nice restaurants within a 5 minute drive , Butterfly Blue on the beach at Brenton was superb . Knysna was about 12 mins drive away Francois and the Staff could not have been more helpful helping us celebrate our wedding anniversary and we appreciated the extra little touches and we loved the peacefulness yet still being close to the town. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommended a stay here ."

Knysna Log-Inn Hotel

8/10 Good

"Having booked online a basic room, we enquired re upgrading and the staff were really helpful. They showed me a some different rooms and the process was very smooth. The staff were happy to help. We opted for the second floor and had a spacious room with an armchair and lounge which I always find an advantage after a days drive. The hotel is a little bit tired, however it’s central, it’s clean and the staff are more than happy to meet all your requests."

Guinea Fowl Lodge

8/10 Good

"My family of four stayed in the family room. We were a little disappointed, not to have a view of the town, but it is the only room that sleeps for. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast were excellent in the morning, a great way to start the day. This is a great place to spend a couple of nights."

Protea Hotel by Marriott Knysna Quays

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel in a great location, right by the water and a short walking distance to all the restaurants at the marina. Parking right at the hotel as well. Rooms are lovely, staff were brilliant, very friendly and helpful. Breakfasts were good - will be staying here again next time we are in Knysna."

South Villa Guesthouse & Garden

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulously friendly and helpful hosts. The room was comfortable and clean and the bed was very comfy too. A lovely balcony to sit at in the evening afforded us a great view out to the sea. Breakfast was well executed and staff were all friendly. The property is well located - just a short drive into town. I would definitely stay here again if I wax to return to Knysna. "

Knysna Hollow Country Estate

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property with well-kept gardens and surroundings. The room was very spacious, clean, and tastefully decorated. The only negative I can mention is the air conditioning, which was quite loud, and the extra sofa bed, which made so much noise that we sometimes woke up even from a deep sleep. The restaurant served very tasty, high-quality food, but the included breakfast was the same every morning. There are two pools on the property, both clean and well maintained."

Brenton On Rocks Luxury Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"This is our newly discovered South African Gardenroute gem, situated a short distance from Knysna! Beautiful, elegant and stylish accommodation that exceeds all expectations! Everthing speaks of quality, exceptional attention to detail and the effort to enhance the guest experience at all times. Quiet location offering an unmatched immersive experience with nature and the Indian Ocean. One of those memorable places that will always be engraved in the mind for an all encompassing and unique moment in time! Compliments to the host for taking such good care of the guests!"
